NBA Injured & Suspended List Basketball

7.5.26 New York

OG Anunoby left the Knicks' 108-102 Game 2 win over the 76ers with an apparent leg injury in the final minutes after a dunk attempt. The team has not disclosed details, and coach Mike Brown deferred to a spokesman. Anunoby had 24 points and was a key contributor as New York took a 2-0 series lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals. Any absence would be a major setback, as he has been the Knicks' second-leading scorer and most efficient shooter this postseason.

6.5.26 LA Lakers

Jarred Vanderbilt dislocated his right pinkie, so severely it broke the skin, while attempting to block a dunk by Chet Holmgren during the Los Angeles Lakers' Game 1 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The injury forced him out of the game, required stitches, and was described as a painful, freak incident.

5.5.26 Minnesota

Anthony Edwards scored 18 points in a surprise return from a knee injury, leading the Minnesota Timberwolves to a 104-102 win over the San Antonio Spurs in Game 1 of the Western Conference semifinals. Edwards scored 11 of his points in the fourth quarter to secure the win.

4.5.26 Minnesota

Anthony Edwards is listed as questionable for Game 1 of the Minnesota Timberwolves second-round playoff series against the San Antonio Spurs as he recovers from a left knee bone bruise. Edwards has resumed light on-court activity and traveled with the team, raising optimism he could return earlier than initially expected. Minnesota has been cautious with his recovery, especially given ongoing knee issues, but his progress could see him back as soon as this series.

2.5.26 Boston

Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum was ruled out of Game 7 against the Philadelphia 76ers due to left knee stiffness just before tipoff. His absence is a major blow for Boston in a decisive matchup, as the team adjusts its lineup for the high-stakes playoff clash.

1.5.26 Toronto

Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram will miss Game 6 against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to ongoing right heel inflammation, which he aggravated in Game 5. Ingram has struggled throughout the series and was unable to practice before the elimination game, leaving the Raptors short-handed as they trail 3-2. Coach Darko Rajakovic expressed confidence in the team's depth to compensate for the absence of Ingram and Immanuel Quickley.

1.5.26 Houston

Kevin Durant will miss Game 6 against the Los Angeles Lakers with a left ankle injury, his fourth straight absence. The Houston Rockets have rallied from 3-0 to force Game 6, but Durant's return this series remains uncertain.

1.5.26 Orlando

Franz Wagner will miss Game 6 with a calf strain as the Orlando Magic take a cautious approach, putting his return in doubt. Orlando still leads the Detroit Pistons 3-2, but his absence has allowed Cade Cunningham to break out offensively.

30.4.26 Toronto

Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram left Game 5 against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to right heel inflammation after re-aggravating a recent foot injury. He played just 11 minutes before exiting in the second quarter, finishing with one point. His absence hurt Toronto late in a 125-120 loss, putting the team down 3-2 in the series. The Raptors are also without Immanuel Quickley, while Scottie Barnes battled through a quad injury but said he expects to recover before the next game.

29.4.26 Houston

The Houston Rockets will be without Kevin Durant for Game 5 against the Los Angeles Lakers due to a left ankle sprain, with the team facing elimination while trailing 3-1 in the series. Durant, who has battled multiple injuries this postseason, has played just one game in the series. Houston managed to win Game 4 without him, but his absence remains a major setback.

29.4.26 LA Lakers

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves is optimistic about returning for Game 5 against the Houston Rockets after missing four weeks with a Grade 2 oblique strain. Listed as a game-time decision, Reaves has progressed through rehab and could provide a boost as the Los Angeles Lakers look to close out the series.

28.4.26 Minnesota

The Minnesota Timberwolves were heavily shorthanded in a 125-113 Game 5 loss to the Denver Nuggets. Anthony Edwards is out indefinitely with a hyperextended knee, while Donte DiVincenzo suffered a ruptured Achilles and has already undergone surgery. Center Naz Reid briefly exited Game 5 after rolling his ankle, limiting his effectiveness.

Denver also dealt with absences, as Aaron Gordon (calf) and Peyton Watson (hamstring) sat out. Despite injuries on both sides, Nikola Jokic led the Nuggets with a triple-double to keep their season alive, while Minnesota's depleted lineup struggled to keep pace.
